The result of the debate was Keep Option 1. Imperators II(Talk) 10:20, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

Although live-action images are usually preferable for infoboxes, we have precedent for using comic images for characters who are visibly older in those appearances (Sabé and Saché for example). Star Wars Leia, Princess of Alderaan, Vol. 2 features a much older Quarsh Panaka, set nearly thirty years after TPM, however the manga is in black & white so it's unclear which would be preferable in this case. The current image is more realistic and in color, however the comic image is more accurate to his most recent appearance.

Option 1: Current image

  1. There is no significant difference in his appearance, so the TPM image is still the preferred version. OOM 224 21:25, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

  4. I generally agree with having later-in-life pictures in the infobox, but not at the cost of clarity. Live action + color wins it for me, as well as OOM's argument above. SorcererSupreme21 (talk) 21:41, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

  6. There is not too big of a difference to warrant a live-action image being replaced imo, and the current image is sharp and clean. --Vitus InfinitusTalk 22:28, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

  12. If it had color, I would go with the second image. — Samonic ChissAscendancyCanonSymbol 07:28, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

  14. Mmm, yeah, per Vitus. Keep in mind that it's a balance between instant recognizability and chronologically-latest portrayal that we're aiming for. Imperators II(Talk) 08:03, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
